Ricky Van Veen's GET EXCITED

March 27, 2008

It’s truly awesome how in recent years, CollegeHumor has birthed its own stable of talent. If the Internet’s not buzzing about the CH founders, it’s talking about you guys or the Prank War or Moberg or the latest video on CHTV. CH/CV is creating and defining our collective web experience as well as our culture in a number of different ways. Has that been the business plan all along?”

That’s a question that was asked in an interview Jake and Amir did on The Apiary today. I smiled a big smile when I read that. Years ago, when people asked me what my long term goals were for CH, I told them two things. First, that I wanted to make CollegeHumor the dominant comedy brand for young males for the web, tv, film, books, and live tours. And second, that I wanted to create a “stable of talent” that would write, act in, produce, and direct all that stuff. To see that phrase used independently in a description of CollegeHumor is awesome.

I’m so fucking proud of everybody in that “stable” and what we’re accomplishing.
